I think of sparkling depth, so of course aldehydes and citrus/bergamot top notes for sparkle, floral facets for substance (such as rose, lily of the valley and perhaps iris) and woods such as cedar for depth. Nothing to cloud it, and it must be elegant. The bottle would, of course, have crystals or reference them in some fashion.Andreanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-14360423339378897292012-04-26T00:57:37.011+01:002012-04-26T00:57:37.011+01:00Penhaligon's Violetta immediately comes to min...Penhaligon's Violetta immediately comes to mind as a scent that captures the look and feel of crystal.
